The issue is not safety of guava leaves for ingrown toe nail, the problem is it is unlikely to resolve the problem. You may want to see if somebody that does pedicure and manicure may help you know how to trim your nails and reduce chances of it happening in the future.

I would suggest soaking toe in warm salt water. Don't think guava leaves will work.
